  • Dealing with more complex pensions queries.
  • Handling both Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) queries.
  • Assisting in non-client related work such as technical committees, training and events.
  • Working closely with other departments/teams both internal and external to the Company to provide a total service to our clients. E.g., Pensions Accounts, Payroll, Administration Support and ITM (3rd party IT software provider).
